Why Study Accounting at Concordia?

Our accounting professors are experts in the field, balancing their research with their practical experience to make what they teach relevant to your future.

Your professors will get to know you personally, challenge and support your intellectual growth, mentor you in preparing for a career and provide detailed letters of recommendation even beyond your graduation.

Real Experiences

During spring tax season, you could take advantage of the accounting department’s volunteer internship opportunity with the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program run by the Minnesota Department of Revenue.

Business Club activities allow you to connect with regional entrepreneurs, executives, investors, and attorneys.

Our Twin Cities metro location is home to Fortune 500 companies and a wide array of industry, governmental, and nonprofit employers, so our accounting students get on-the-job experience at nearby internships and jobs.

Relevant Learning

Because the coursework and experiences outside the classroom are designed to teach the knowledge and skills demanded in the marketplace, our accounting students find career success after graduation.

Our accounting graduates find immediate employment at companies, agencies, and organizations of all sorts, including nationally known firms such as Deloitte.

Lifelong Value

Since a Concordia education is grounded in the liberal arts and exposes you to a wide range of disciplines across the sciences, humanities, and social sciences, you’ll graduate with versatile knowledge and critical thinking skills that are valuable in any career.

In our Lutheran setting, you’ll acquire greater self-understanding and explore your place in the home, workplace, community and congregation as you prepare for a lifetime of thoughtful living and dedicated service.
